Way to leave the quote out of context. But you're the one supporting the dirt bag so...

You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

Grab 'em by the *****. You can do anything.
So with no warning, no approval, no green lights Trump starts kissing and grabbing *****. So explain to us non-English speakers where "let" comes into play?

From my perspective on the right, it seems to me that Republicans have a knee-jerk tendency to toss out any suspected pervert with or without evidence. Larry Craig, Bob Packwood,etc. are shown the door almost immediately. Hell, Larry Craig was engaging in a celebrated Democrat activity. On the other hand, Democrats have tolerated Bill "Riding Dirty" Clinton, Hillary Clinton's personal destruction of women Clinton has abused, Ted Kennedy and Chris Dodd's waitress sandwiches, Joe "Handsy" Biden, JFK, RFK, and the list goes on.

Curious how everyone sees it. To be fair, the Republicans do tout themselves as the party of family values, so it would make sense that hey have to be mindful of perverts for that reason. Democrats are the anti-family values party, so it would make sense that they would be a bit more tolerant of perverts.
Not thinking your poll is working out the way you expected.

Both.
The dems defended Bill Clinton tooth and nail.
The GOP defends their own the same way.
With power comes corruption. Some hide it better than others.

Ah, another leftist who doesn't seem to fully comprehend the English language, I see. As I have repeated multiple times, Donald J. Trump explicitly stated that "they let" him do what he described. Hence, consent clear here. Only someone who wants to read something into what was not actually stated will claim that this is a confession of wrongdoing. I've stated before that the comments were crude and irresponsible. But if we start hemming people up for private conversations (that don't even touch on illegality), then we'd all be in big trouble. Moreover, crude/irresponsible comments don't equate to illegal behavior, no matter how much the left wants it to be the case.

So, again, no I will not condemn someone based on mere allegations (to your 16 women point). It goes against my notion of justice and fairness. If, however, there is corroborating evidence to support wrongdoing, then I'm all for punishment.

I put his full quote in context unlike some other trolls. According to Trump... he does it automatically, without waiting for any go ahead. Please explain to us non-rapists how you understand where permission was granted for Trump to grab ***** when he admits he doesn't even wait for permission?

And knowing that his MO is to not wait for permission before he sexually assaultn someone... Why are you surprised that there are women who have claimed he sexually assaulted them?

Yet they are the ones who keep getting voted in how people can say that they want what's good for all American's is what's confusing me.

Lightbulb Which political party defends/tolerates its perverts the most?

Pubs

Neither should tolerate even a teaspoon of that crap.

Unfortunately, both get away with more than they should.

Looks like that's about to change and it's way past due.
